Like almost all animals, bettas can be male or female. Adult female bettas typically have shorter fins than adult male bettas, and are often less "showy" or brightly colored than the males (though colorful females definitely exist). Female bettas have a white bump on their stomachs, called the ovipositor-- this is where the eggs are stored, and where they are released from when mating occurs.

If you would like to know what gender your betta is, look for the egg spot. (for females) It should be a small white cloud between the head and body. If your betta has one, it's a female. If your betta doesn't have one, it's a male.
